NOVA (New Observers to Visual Astronomy) is the public introduction to astronomy course that is designed to show the novice astronomer the wonders of the night sky and how to enjoy them. NOVA is presented by volunteers from the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada (RASC), Toronto Centre.

NOVA is a six-week program. We are excited to offer a lineup of expert presenters who will introduce you to visual observing, the solar system, stars, deep sky objects, black holes, telescopes, cosmology, and so much more!

The next NOVA course will be held at the Yorkville Library from October 24 to December 5, 2017, from 6:15-8:00pm (six Tuesdays excluding October 31 due to Halloween). Classes will be 1 hour and 45 minutes in length, with a 15-minute break in the middle.
